The Town of Kennebunk plans to lease land at (unnumbered) Factory Pasture Lane, MBL 052-044 for the location and operation of a telecommunications facility.
This infrastructure has been identified in past planning efforts (see Proposed Wireless Communications Master Plan and Crane Report below) and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan.
There are multiple public benefits to the project:
Improved radio signal coverage and redundancy for public safety and the ability to locate their equipment without cost
Improved wireless cellular coverage for residents, businesses and visitors in the service area
Financial compensation for the Town from the leasing of land
